Anisotropy of the zigzag order in the Kitaev honeycomb magnet α-RuBr3 by Pearce, JS, Kaib, DAS, Ma, Z, Ni, D, Cava, RJ, Valenti, R, Coldea, R, Coldea, AI

“…Based on angular-dependent torque studies in magnetic fields up to 16 T rotated in the plane normal to the honeycomb layers, we find an easy-plane anisotropy with a temperature dependence of the torque amplitude following closely the behaviour of the powder magnetic susceptibility. …”

Understanding trends in social fluidity in western europe: class structural change and the OED triangle by Goldthorpe, J, Bukodi, E

“…In contrast with earlier research, we treat education in relative terms. We find that the tendency for fluidity to increase within class structures after WW2, rather than being the expression of a ‘worldwide secular trend’, was restricted to a distinctive historical period of rapid economic growth and class structural change. …”

Dark patterns and consumer vulnerability by Zac, A, Huang, Y, von Moltke, A, Decker, C, Ezrachi, A

Optical sideband spectroscopy of a single ion in a Penning trap by Mavadia, S, Stutter, G, Goodwin, JF, Crick, DR, Thompson, RC, Segal, DM

“…From the equivalent Doppler widths of the sideband spectra corresponding to the three motions we find effective temperatures of 1.1 ± 0.2 mK, 7 ± 3 mK, and 42 ± 8 μK for the axial, modified cyclotron, and magnetron modes, respectively. …”

Strain-tuning of nematicity and superconductivity in single crystals of FeSe by Ghini, M, Bristow, M, Prentice, JCA, Sutherland, S, Sanna, S, Haghighirad, AA, Coldea, AI

“…Here, we investigate the effect of uniaxial strain on the nematic and superconducting phase of single crystal FeSe using magnetotransport measurements. We find that the resistivity response to the strain is strongly temperature dependent and it correlates with the sign change in the Hall coefficient being driven by scattering, coupling with the lattice and multiband phenomena. …”

Control co-design of a large offshore wind farm considering the effect of wind extractability by Pahus, ML, Nishino, T, Kirby, A, Vogel, CR

“…We also introduce a 'gridded' turbine layout optimisation into the CCD, which allows us to quickly find optimal angles of the primary axes of a regular turbine array to maximise the annual energy production (AEP) of a given number of turbines at a given offshore farm site. …”

Driven to self-reliance: technological interdependence and the Chinese innovation ecosystem by Tan, YT, Dallas, M, Newman, A, Farrell, H

“…We then analyze an original corpus of policy documents to examine institutional shifts. We find that US shocks – the Snowden revelations and technology restrictions – produce a shift away from technological interdependence, toward security-focused self-reliance. …”

Underestimating global land greening: future vegetation changes and their impacts on terrestrial water loss by Chai, Y, Miao, C, Slater, L, Ciais, P, Berghuijs, WR, Chen, T, Huntingford, C

“…Our approach reduces uncertainty in global LAI projections by 37.7%–53.1%. We find that this uncertainty is primarily due to incomplete representations of the CO₂ fertilization effect. …”

The do's and don'ts of quantum memory in cryptanalysis by Jaques, S

“…</p> <p>I then analyse circuits to attack elliptic curve cryptography with Shor’s algo- rithm. I find that even expensive QRAM improves these circuits. …”

Relationship of scrotal circumference and testicular volume to age and body weight in the swamp buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) by Bongso, T.A., Hassan, M.D., Nordin, W.

“…Ages and body weight (BW) were recorded for each male at the time of measurement to find out if they correlated with SC and TV. SC and TV increased linearly and correlated significantly with age and BW (SC vs age: r = 0.74, p<0.01; SC vs BW: r = 0.88, p<0.01; TV vs BW: r = 0.82, p<0.01). …”

Does CEO power affect audit's report lag in the Gulf Cooperation Council economies? the curtailing role of corporate governance by Khan, Faisal, Abdul-Hamid, Mohamad Ali, Saidin, Saidatunur Fauzi

“…Results show that CEO-tenure and duality increase ARL in GCC economies. Additionally, we find that the effect of CEO-tenure on ARL is curtailed when board independence is stronger, whereas the effect of CEO duality is unchanged by board independence. …”

Driven Factors to Sustainable Paddy Farming Production in Malaysia by Zahari, Fadhilah, Othman, Zakirah, Abu, Noor Hidayah, Salleh, Nurul Azita

“…System of Rice Intensification ( ability through improving paddy ecosystem, better sustainable economic due to improving paddy production and sales and social sustainability through local community development through community activity and health. This study aimed to find out whether the innovative practices of SRI affect the rice value chain and to determine the roles, activities of the actors in the value chain as well as challenges that impacted the value chain. …”
